sworn to abide by the commands (de stando mandatis) of the Church, absolved 

 him and relaxed his suspension, and pronounced that he had incurred the fine 

 formerly decreed (in multam antiquam incidisse) except (preter) 18 marks 

 already paid. A penalty (pena) was laid upon him in case of repetition of 

 his offence, viz. (1), that he should ipso facto again fall under the sentence 

 of greater excommunication, and (2) into the penalty of paying £100, and 

 (3) that he should be brought before (ipsum . . . deferendi) the Pope with a 

 view to his deposition. The declaration of the grace to be shown him by the 

 primate concerning the fine (multa) for the present offence was reserved — (to 

 be made) more ample (et in tanto amplioris) if he treated his clerks and 

 laymen kindly, and especially the commissaries of the primate and those who 

 obeyed them. By way of procurations to the primate, who was two days in 

 the diocese, the bishop granted 4 marks, to be paid within 15 days, and 

 the clergy, because they were poor, 4 marks, although the visitation was not 

 parochial.

 primate should complete his visitation by Master Peter Okerbyllan, his 

 commissary.
